Claire McCaskill is Todd Akin’s gift to mankind. Bad luck, followed by a series of incredibly stupid decisions. Thanks, Todd.
I wish people here would STOP slamming and blaming Todd Akin. There is enough Todd Akin trashing all throughout the internet. We do not need it here at Free Republic.
For the record, Todd Akin was leading McCaskill in the polls up until Karl Rove opened his fat mouth and threw Todd under the bus on national television. Rove announced he was pulling his PAC money from the campaign which was tantamount to endorsing McCaskill. Rove did this all because Todd, as the true conservative in the race, had the temerity to defeat his oh so precious “electable” candidate.
If we are going to cast blame in this whole matter, blame Rove and the GOPe, not Todd Akin.
